Song For Ellie

You wooed me with your lifestyle Your black and marble palace The wealth and rooms were vast I trusted you with my future But now that time has passed By myself time for reflection An opening that closed a door In my heart I saw with clarity You priorities never me No faith, no hope nor charity You only get one shot in life I don't mean vodka or gin My life has a different tune A cello not a synthesiser That's why I'm leaving soon So keep your northern ways Barren rooms where no one talks We'll agree to disagree Enjoy your steel glass boxes Because now I'm breaking free
